tatsblisters 9,597 Posted June 23, 2023 Report Share Posted June 23, 2023 My old lurcher is on her last legs and i dont want to put her through the trauma of taking her to the vets which she has not been for year's. Has anyone else used these people that provide this service and what was the procedure. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I just tell the vet to come to the house and do it charge you a load more Ford the pleasure, but less stressful for dog and family if it’s a family dog 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That was what I thinking when time comes just ask the vet to do a call out. Might be worth running by you local vet and get registered with them. Some vets around her have actually stopped taking on people they gone like dentists and doctors Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gilbey 1,434 Posted June 23, 2023 Report Share Posted June 23, 2023 Years ago my mother had a dog PTS at home by her vet, like others have said. Also known people get the vet to do it in the back of the car, instead of the stress of going inside 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Think that’s a common theme. My old dog got big old lump on his leg. Vet wanted a grand to remove it with no certainty. It might or might not come back. She was surprised when I said no thanks. She said his only eight. His not suffering and two years later the pain in neck is still here. Think he getting pay back and going to hang on for years Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FLATTOP 4,439 Posted June 23, 2023 Report Share Posted June 23, 2023 I had my dog put to sleep at home the vet gave him a sedative and then after he relaxed done what he had to do it did cost a bit more but owning him for 11 years it’s nothing, must say though I found it very upsetting but they do become part of your family. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
